Ha Ha, Alexei creating that!

Come on, OC. Right guy, right time. My vote goes for Dye's defense being ranked as average. I think below average is very critical and way off.

P.S. I HATE when Hawk refers to scoring as "putting points on the board".

This probably has been touched on, but what are they doing out in left at Kaufman?

I blinked and missed the top of the 10th.

Does Baron Davis sign now or does he back out?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2008 -> 07:46 PM) Leadoff double for the Twins against Papelbon. Crisp is an idiot.

We just plain did not show up to play. Like we were assuming a rain out and shocked we are playing.

This is April like frustrating.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 8, 2008 -> 05:40 PM) They are 3.5 games out of the wild card despite completely over-hauling the roster (ie, moving Haren & Swisher). I don't think anyone in baseball would have expected that so he's done a pretty good job getting talent for his above average players who are due to get larger contracts. And this is coming from someone who has always made the statement that Beane is wildly over-rated. This is why I can't understand why they would trade Harden. They have one of the best staffs in baseball and trade their top starter for a bunch of guys who can't play in the NL at the major league level. I know Gallagher had a couple of good starts, but still.

The Phillies have 4 guys that will stay at the stadium and vote non stop for Pat Burrell until the deadline. Even after the stadium closes, they will stay and vote. Lame.

I'm starting to wonder how Beane keeps his job.

The Return of KONG!

How many should we send?

Steve Phillips lost all his credibility a few years ago when he decided to start picking the Reds. 2nd best pitching staff in baseball and we don't have one pitcher or our catcher. Anyone who makes a case for Varitek over AJ is a butthead.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jul 6, 2008 -> 06:46 PM) Im not gonna be convinced with Gallardo until he gets over his severe case of Kerry Wood-itis Gallardo's injuries are freak accidents, not constant elbow or shoulder problems.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jul 6, 2008 -> 06:41 PM) Im not sorry to see him leave the division to go face the Cubs for the rest of the year. Not sorry at all. Im curious as to whether the Brewers actually attempt to sign him long term. Props to the Brewers for being able to keep the rest of their high level prospects If the Brewers can sign him and Sheets, imagine that staff with Gallardo and Parra.

Cody Ross had 15 RBI's in the 4 game series vs. Rockies.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 6, 2008 -> 04:35 PM) You'd like to think so, but he's doing very well this year and the game's in New York. I understand he is having a good year, but he is a guy who has admitted under oath to using steroids extensively and continues to get a free pass by the media while they worship his porn stache.

Giambi should never be considered for any type of award or recognition like an All Star appearance, IMO.

The fact that Boone is not in facing Cust pisses me off.

Linebrink has never been a closer in his career, yet we are going to give him opportunities over Dotel and Thornton? I say go with match ups. Boone vs. lefties.

Manufacturing runs is kinda fun.

Nadal wins it! Amazing! Greatest match I ever seen.
